The latest rumors from Europe state that Prince Leopold lias telegraphed to Madrid declining to accept the throne of Spain, and that consequently there is a probability that the war cloud may blow over, provided France does not insist upon the observance of the treaty of Prague by Prussia. It was evident from the first that the nomination of Prince Leopold to the Spanish throne was merely used by France as a pretext for bringing about a long-desired conflict with Prussia. .Not only does the increased power and iw poitance of the last-named power, under the G2gres8ivo polxy of Bismarck, threaten the (supremacy of France and render a col lision with her liable to occur at any time, but the French Emperor has been steadily losing ground with his own people of late years; and he is well aware that a successful foreign war is almost the only way by which he can regain his prestige aad establish the empire on a firm basis. Having every reason, therefore, to seek a quarrel with Prussia, it is of course not extremely difficult to find a bone of contention, and the treaty of Prague will answer for something to fight about quite as well as the nomination of Prince Leopold. In the controversy, thus far, Prussia has apparently acted entirely on the defensive, and has succeeded in throwing the whole onus of the quarrel on France. The probabilities are, however, that Bismarck is quite as ready to fight as Napoleon; and as the attitude and tone of the latter have been particularly dictatorial and insulting, the national pride of the whole Prussian nation will undoubtedly be aroused to such an extent that they will give a most enthusiastic sup port to the government in case it refuses to accede to the demands of France. The treaty of Prague, which has thus be come the important feature in the contro versy, was concluded on the 30th of August, 18CG, between Austria and Prussia, after the signal defeat of the former at Sadowa and Koniggratz. By this treaty Austria withdrew from the German Confederation, recognized the North German Union, with Prussia at its head, and yielded up to Prussia her rights in the duchies of Schleswig and Ilolstein, with the proviso that if the people of the northern districts of Schleswig should by a free vote elect to unite with Denmark, they should be ceded to that power. Prussia for her part consented to recognize a union of the German States south of the River Main, under the auspices of Austria, if any such should be concluded, and various other matters of detail which have no reference to the present controversy. In the organization of the North German Confederacy, Prussia endeavored to grasp as much and to yield as little as possible. France obtained from her a promise to destroy the fortress of Luxem burg before she would consent to Prussia taking possession of Hanover, and France has also claimed that the abandonment of Mayence was agreed upon under that section of the treaty which ceded the territory south of the r.iver Main to Austria. Prussia has not only neglected thus far to carry out her agreement with regard to Sehleswig-Holfctein, but she has endeavored to maintain her control of the two strong strategic points named. Her garrison holds Mayence and is a standing threat both to Austria and France, and although the troops have been withdrawn from Luxemburg and the dismantlement of the fortress commenced, there has been no disposition to hurry the work, and Luxemburg remains to-day really as strong as it ever was. France now de mands that the Schleswig-llolstein affair shall be settled by Prussia, that the liberties of the South German States shall be guaranteed, and that the fortress of Mayence shall be evacuated. Luxemburg does not come into the controversy at present, because Prussia has, nominally at least, kept her agreement with regard to it, but in case of hostilities breaking out the instant occupation of this strong position by Prussia will demonstrate her estimation of its value and the reason for not wishing to hasten its destruction. The real cause of this contest is the same as that which brought about the majority of the wars in which France and the Germ in powers have been engaged. France has ever been eager to . include in her territory the whole of the west bank of the Rhine, but has never yet been able to accomplish it. If this object of Gallio ambition could be gained the whole of Germany would be at the mercy of France, whereas, under existing circum stances, the Rhenish provinces form a sort of neutral ground which serves to maintain the balance of power. The preponderating in fluence of Prussia in these provinces has been A source of annoyance to France ever since .the treaty of Prague, and as the Emperor , has both a national and a personal reason fur precipitating a conflict, the withdrawal of Prince Leopold id not likely to affect t'ue situation materially. John Bcll, by way of revenging himjelf for our refusal to permit Canada to impose on us a reciprocity treaty, has determined to Commence a petty war on the New England fishermen. We should take good care to pre vent this contemptible stroke of British Statesmen from forcing ua to adopt a polioy injurious to American interests. We should continue to oppose free trade with Canada, even if the supplies of codfish are to be diminished. If the British American colj- nies absolutely need free American markets for their support, they should be compelled to seek them through annexation. We trust that our Government will not be induced to abandon this attitude by any device that Great Britain can invent. CAMERON'S CULPABILITY. Ocn strictures on Senator Cameron's shame ful skulking on the income tax have com pelled him to exhaust his fertile ingenuity to break, if possible, the tide of reprobation that has surged against him. At first it was au thoritatively announced by telegraph from Washington that Senator Cameron had paired with Senator Anthony, and yesterday a morn ing contemporary gave the same explanation of Cameron's failure to vote, and called upon ns to retract. It happens, however, that Senator Anthony was not paired at all, as the record shows, and that explanation, originally thrown out by Cameron' and reiterated by his apologists, fails because it is false. Finding that the story of pairing with Anthony would not hold water, Senator Cameron next gave out that he was paired with Senator Sprogue. The explanation of pairing with Sprague has a shadow of merit, but it has not the substance of truth. It is true that Senator Cameron paired with Sprague about the 1st of July, to enable him to go home to spend the Fourth, and Mr. Sprague so stated; but Senator Cameron had returned and been in his seat some time be: fore the test vote was had on striking the in come tax out of the bill, and his pair with Sprague was ended. On the night that the tie vote was hi 1, when his vote would have saved the nation from the triumph of the ring on gross re ceipts, he was in the Senate a very short time before the vote was taken, and he must have left knowing that a vote would certainly be reached within an hour. It was his duty not to pair or to skulk from his place when an issue of such moment was to be deter mined. Who doubts that he would have been in his place, " not only voting but lobbying from chair to chair, to save his ring of speculators, had gross receipts been in danger? but when they were safe from tax ation he retired gracefully, on the eve of the vote; and now, in his confusion, conflicting stories of pairing with two Senators are thrown out to shield Mr. Cameron from his ill-concealed perfidy. He was there a few minutes before the vote was taken why did he not stay ? If he did pair, with whom did he pair ? Was it Anthony ? If so, Anthony cheated him. Was it Sprague ? If so, had not the pair expired when Cameron returned from Hairisburg ? There is a strange dis crepancy out, looking at the explanation from every stand-point, and Cameron should at once proceed to explain his confused ex planations. WINDING UP T11E SESSION. The House of Representatives yesterday afternoon, on motion of Mr. Sohenck, sus pended the rules which prohibit bills being sent to either house or to the President during the last three days of the session. This is according to the almost invariable custom, and in view of this custom we fail to see any good reason for keeping the sus pended regulations in the manual of the House. Whole weeks of valuable time have been absolutely wasted by both houses, and now that but two full working days of the session are left, there is the same grand rush and clatter in the legislative mill that we are accustomed to witness at the close of a ses sion. Such vital measures as the Funding bill, upon the provisions of which the future financial policy and credit of the country in great degree depend, are incomplete, because each house has its favorite theory, and if the bill is to be perfected at all, ' it must be done in a conference committee. The powers dele gated to the two houses by the Constitution are redelegated by them to a bare half dozen Congressmen, who will, perhaps, do the best they can in the time at their command, but who are absolutely incapable of patching up the financial system of the country in a few hours. Several vital measures have already been thus summarily digested, and several of great importance are still pending because of difl'erences between the two houses. All this is the legitimate fruit of the tardy manner in which Congressmen have faced their duties during the unusually long session just draw ing to a close, and a still further result is the abandonment of all attempts at disposing of some questions, like the case of Georgia, until next winter. But, then, the sessions of Congress usually wind up in this fashion. 1I1E NEW YORK RIOT. A hekious riot occurred at New York yester day between a party of Orangemen, who were celebrating the anniversary of the battle of the Boyne, and a party of three hundred Irish laborers. Three persons were killed during the affray, and a large number were severely wounded. Each party charges its adversary with being the aggressor, the Catholics alleging that the Orangemen played party tunes, used insulting epithets, and finally threw stones at the workmen before the latter made an attack; while the Orange men allege' that the workmen were the first assailants. Whatever may be the facts; for eigners of either faction sadly abuse the freedom of this country when they seek to transfer the quarrels of the Old World to our soil, and to disturb the public peace here by their difl'erences of opinion about a battle fought many years ago on the other side of the Atlantic. If they cannot forget their ancient animosities, they should at least re frain from irritating publio demonstrations, and strive to forget Old World victories or defeats in the common glories of American citizenship. They should seek to understand and to act upon new and live issues apper taining to their present position, in stead of perpetuating bootless quarrels. The United States Steameb Mohican re cently captured a filibustering or piratical steamer, the Forward, which it is allaged was fitted out by citizens of California for a pira tical cruiae in the waters of the Pacific coast of Mexico, with the intention of capturing a Panama steamer if a favorable opportunity for such an achievement was presented. Oar gentle brothers on the other side of the con tinent are growing Btrong enough to feel anxious to share the dangers, profits, and glories of filibustering' with the adventurers of the Atlantic coast, and the disastrous termi nation of their late adventure niiy exert a useful influence in prompting them to exert their energies hereafter in a more legitimat e direction. Tiracy, in an open or disguised form, deserves no countenance from any quarter in this age. If the facts have been truthfully reported, the Mohican has only done its share of the duty devolving upon the war vessels of all civilized countries. "Shoo-fly" Cox took rather a lofty flight in the House yesterday. In the course of his remarks in opposition to the conference re port on the Funding bill, he declared that the only panacea of the country was "a fair, gradual, and honest resumption of specie payments." All sensible men will agree with him in this, but there is likely to be some ex pressions of doubt as to the possibility of bringing it about through the agency of the alliance proposed by Mr. Cox. "God, the laws of trade, commerce, and Democracy," are the forces which Mr. Cox invites into the field, side by side, to fight for resumption. This quadruple alliance preseuts some strange features, and it is extremely doubtful if its component parts will harmonize sufficiently for an effective warfare upon the Republican party. If tho alliance proposed by Mr. Cox were a tripartite one alone, with the Demo cratic element left out, there might be some reason for fear and trembling in the Republi can camp. A Washington pesspatch says "the Cfobe will cost the Forty-first Congress about ii00,000," one-third of which expense arises from printing speeches which are never de livered and documents which are never read. The maxim that "talk is cheap" evidently does not apply to Congressional speeches. They are fearfully expensive, and impose a dreadful tax upon the time, the patience, and the purse of the nation. Nine-tenths of all this bulky nonsense is made up of ridiculous personal explanations and buncombe bosh. The newspapers furnish to the mass of the people, gratuitously, all the Congressional proceedings that they care to see, and it is high time that the large sum now squandered annually to enrich the printer of the Olobe and to gratify the vanity of Congressional noodles should be devoted to a more useful purpose. DISPOSAL OF THE PUBLIC LAADS. During the year ending June 30, 1SC3, over seven and a half mil Hods of acres of the public lands were disposed of In the following manner: Acre", Cash sales, including a small amount of military scrip 2,S30,5H-30 Locations of military bounty-land war rants 4 4 J, ISO -00 Homestead entries under the acts of 1S02, 1SU4, and isuo 2.737,305-05 Locations of agricultural college scrip, under act of J uly 2, 1S02 SS'AGGPSG Certliied to railways and wugou roads, under various acts of Congress T4i,7C9-51 Acres approved to Mates as swamp land, under act of September 2s, isfto, 4rl,-V9&-30, and selected as indemnity for lands in place, covered by adverse lights, 4,47-19; total 465,763 '49 Locations of Indian scrip 4,2&9-7G Aggregate duringthe year 7,006,151-97 The total fhows an increase, as compared with the Uscal year next preceding, of over one million acres. The cash receipts during the year ending June 30, 1CC9. for otdinary sales and pre-emptions, Including a small quantity of military scrip received as nioney ; for the 15 and 10 homestead payments; for the commissions on homesteads ; for fees in the location of agricultural college scrip ; for same lu the location of military warrants; for fees In pre emption cases, on donations on railroad selections, Bud.on certliied transcripts, under the acts of IStil and 1SG4, make an aggregate of $4,472,886-28, an in cicase over the year preceding of 2,840,140 "38. From the returns, so far as received, it is estimated that for the quarter ending 30th September, 19, there have been taken by cash sales, bounty-land locations, homestead entries, and agricultural col It ge scrip, about one million seven hundred thou sand acres, and that the cash receipts for that quar ter lor sales and warrant fees compare well, and reach in the aggregate nearly a million dollars. The locations of military bounty land warrauts and of agricultural college scrip during tho afore said llscal year ending June 30, 1SG9, exhibit a de crease as compared with the year preceding, while the other items present a marked advance, espe cially the homestead entries and cash sales, the latter embracing more than three times the quantity isold during the tiscal year ending June 30, iscs, and the total quantity disposed of Is greater than lu any previous llscal year since 1880. "From the data above presented," says the annual report of the Commissioner of the General Land Oillce, a bulky volume of over 400 pages which has just Reached us from the Government Printing Oillce, "it is evident that Ameclcan civilization Is expanding at an accelerating ratio over the continent. The very large advance In the homestead, pre-emption entries, cash sales, and military bounty -laud warrant locations, Indicates a gratifying increase in the number of freeholds, being mostly appro priated by actual settlers of email farms, generally not exceeding one hundred and sixty acres each. The laud concessions under grants for railroads, so far as it is possible to gather from public Informa tion, exhibit a tendency also to subdivision of pro prietorship. The experience of the world has shown that such tendencies are In the direction of a normal civilization, by enlarging the number of persons having a lauded interest in dirt preservation of social order." Texas always was strong in adjectives, aud it is a good sign to tlnd that her newspapers have stopped heaping them upon the "niggers'' long enough to pitch into the strong-minded women. The llyran Apytnl, for example, thanks Uod that it has heard of no southern woman "perambulating the country with green spectacles and hermaphrodite apparel preaching 'Women's Rights,' ,'1'ree Love,' and 'Spiritualism,' " as It has often seen "those lantern jawed, thin-shanked and fork-tongued strong minded women do who hail from that region whereof Boston is the social centre." Stories about the curious antics of liUtnin are plentiful ibis season. While a man iu Elko, Cal., was recently at work on a telegraph wire, with tho end of it in his hand, a Hash struck the line some distance owiy, iustantly split three of the man's fingers, passed up his arm, across his breast, and down his side, darting out at his knee, leaving a blackened oritico like a bullet bole, and plunging into the ground. The man was knocked senseless, but soon recovered, aud professed to feel all the better for the little shock. The sensation, he said, was not very puinful, but seemed like the pricking of sharp pins. Nearly 1400 volumes were added to the P.ot-ton Public Library during the iuoath3 of March, April, and May. SPECIAL NOTIOES. l FOR STY LB AND BEAUT V, FOR C A I!
